animals for the most part, but the
Semitic religions were based upon rev
erence for. astronimical objects. Su
perstition and ignorance went hand
in hand on the occasion of an eclipse
and so created the most appalling
apprehensions.
The eclipse of the sun is occasioned
by the movement of the moon. The
sun stands still, virtually, while the
moon sweeps over its face. That is,
the sun moves only about a minute
and a half along his path during an
hour, which is about the average du
ration of an eclipse. Hense, it is
clearly apparent that both the eclipse
of the moon and of the sun are
brought about by the mon's motion,
with virtually no reference whatever
to the motions of either the sun or
the earth.

associated in the minds of the people
with an eclipse, but as a scientific and
